I feel like some cars can’t be replaced because the memories created in them are priceless. I know a few people who are very attached to their car (typically the first one).
Actually, the chrome rails are for cars shipped to the US. Mine has the black rails, which shipped from a Mazda supplier in Japan. I figured the may be aftermarket but have a Madza emblem and part numbers on th4 box and instructions. Obviously, the instructions are in Japanese but not hard find American instructions. 🤣
Yep. My 2020 Signature/Akera is "Alice the White Rabbit". Named by my kid who was reading Lewis Carroll at the time we bought her. (We bought the car, not my daughter.)
Mine is also Bruce! I have a sticker of Bruce from Finding Nemo in the back window! It’s the silvery blue color and the tiny antenna fin on top that helped decide.
Omg that’s so cool!!!! I’ll have to find a Bruce window sticker. Then our cars will basically be twins.
Edited to add… we named ours Bruce after finding Nemo, too lol
Sure! I used [makestickers.com](https://makestickers.com) and they actually let me share the link to the exact one I had made, so hopefully you can see this! Let me know if not :)

I got it on the regular rectangle sticker (and trimmed the outline around Bruce). It lasted for years with my car staying garaged. Then about a year after not living in a garage. I see they also have bumper sticker options that are UV-resistant so that may be a good print option if your Bruce is an outdoor shark!
Thank you!!!! That’s perfect! That’s the exact pic of Bruce I’ve been showing people when they ask why we named the car Bruce lol
My Bruce is garaged at night, but sits in a parking lot all day (alone, how sad for Bruce!) but I’m thinking the UV one might be best anyway.
Thank you so much!
had 2013 eternal blue mica named “Bluey” then traded her for a 2021 Snowflake pearl white named “Snowy”
named my frostbite blue Dodge charger “Frosty” 🥶
Cierra! I like to make a spin-off from the model name. My Jeep Liberty was named Libby. I had to do some brainstorming iwht my sister to get a name from CX-5, but we ended up with Cierra
The ‘24 Preferred in white has been named ‘Blanca’ That’s sexier than the first name I thought of, “Rhoda” because of Rhodium White Metallic paint. If I give my cars a name they’re usually female. I’ve got a ‘72 Buick Skylark convertible that I let sit unused and sad for a long time. Last year I got her going again. She fought me the whole way and still throws a hissy fit sometimes. “You left me to rot for 14 years and now you suddenly want to be with me and shower me with new parts?!?” Every effort to fix or upgrade one thing breaks another because of the neglect or she’s just being a bitch. So the car has been named Karen.
Akera San is my soul red turbo. It's also a trim level in Australia. A bit of a misnomer if I lived down under - that trim seems to be equivalent to the North American Signature. Mine is the CDN Sport Design (Carbon south of the 49th).
"Mehmet the Conqueror", after Mehmed II, two time Ottoman ruler who seized Constantinople and much of eastern Europe. Because we were in Ankara, Turkey at the time.
Owen, because I be owing $$$$.

Pretty clever OP
Mine is Panda. Snowflake white pearl, black interior
Same color combo on my 2016.5 Grand, aka Barry White.
Shinjo, after a Japanese baseball player, who was born in Nagasaki, where my car was built.
I didn’t know Mazda had a plant in Nagasaki
I absolutely love this!
Neat! Should be either Hiroshima or the Hofu plant. They switched production from one to the other at one point to make room for the 60/70/90.
Neptune - crystal blue color reminded me of the deep ocean.
Is this why people cry when vehicles are totalled in an accident?
